I always love a good after post! I know I teased you all with my Kirkland’s post the other day. Well, let’s get on with the show shall we? Here’s my living room as it looks today. It makes me super happy, which is very important because I use it as my office. And every blogger deserves a good working space, right? 😉

GE Slate Appliances
A couple of months ago I predicted that matte black was going to hit it big this year. It’s a huge jump from stainless steel, that’s for sure. Well, I’ve actually just discovered a new option and I’m in serious love: slate. I mean we all know and love slate tiles and floors, but slate appliances? That’s new. That’s different. And that’s so…perfect. It’s like the next progression from stainless steel. Another great reason to love it? No fingerprints! Yep, the slate has a matte finish so no more sloppy fingerprints and smudges. Pretty enticing right?
Living Room Ideas
After getting the kid’s room set for awhile, the living room started calling my name. It’s the first big room you see when entering our home so it definitely needs to make an impact. Also with the great character of the room, it really called for something just as dramatic.
Historically I’ve always used the living room as an office, preferring to use a laptop rather than a desktop. So I’d say this room represents me the most of any in the house. I wanted to fill only with things I love and that give me pleasure since I spend most of my time in this space.
Next step? Time to hit pinterest for some inspiration! Here are some 0f my favorite living room designs.
